Our Reliable Piping Estimating Process
Thorough knowledge and expertise are needed for the installation process during piping estimating services. Our piping estimating contractors begin by reviewing the bid documents and drawing plans to clearly understand the project’s scope. Then, using the latest software like PlanSwift, AccuBid, and QuickBid, they quantify all the costs and materials required.
The quantified quantities are then exported to EXCEL spreadsheets, which include the details and specifications of the items. Our piping take-off spreadsheet contains all the measurements and quantities of the items. Our team of professional piping cost estimators has a strong connection and link with the market vendors, suppliers, and distributors. They provide a market-competitive price according to the zip-code posting and use the latest software like R.S..
Following are the few estimated items and products, estimated by R.S. means and zip-code-based pricing:
- Staff hours
- Labor costs, including the skilled and unskilled labor

After all this, the take-off sheet is sent to a senior piping estimator to look at and review the estimates carefully. Then, the take-off sheet can be forwarded to the contractors with the details of the materials so they can discuss it with the vendors. Local area labor costs, staff hour costs, material, wastage, and other overhanging costs are calculated and mentioned in our estimates.
